• Tsubasa:

The tankoubon edition of Tsubasa #28 has 9 additional pages from the epilogue chapter that were not printed in the magazine.

cutesherry scanned those pages and uploaded them here. The translation from those pages by starlady38 can be found here. Make sure to check them out!

The final Tsubasa volume has 268 pages. I think that's the largest tankoubon released by CLAMP to date? I don't remember how many pages RG Veda #10 has.

I was happy with the additional pages because they reveal a bit more about Fei Wang Reed's origins and somehow give a more satisfying idea of who he was.

• Kobato.:

Here's the cover of the first Kobato. TV Anime DVD (taken from the series' official website):


There will be a customer service available for those who buy DVDs 1 to 6 where applicants will be presented with a bottle made of glass just like Kobato's.

The limited edition of DVD 2 will come with an original Talk CD featuring Kobato and Kohaku, while the limited edition of DVD 3 will come with an Ioryogi plush toy strap (check the picture at the official website).

Lastly, Kadokawa will release an official guide for the TV series entitled TV Anime "Kobato." CHARACTERS COLLECTION. This will be released on January 29.

Online streaming here.

Additional torrents and fansubbed links shall be added later in this post.

Just a heads up that the official website of the Kobato. TV Anime added a report from the Kobato. Museum that is being held at the Ikebukuro Animate store until November 1st.

Check it out here. I like that new anime illustration right at the museum's entrance with Kobato and Ushagi =)

Update: Jun Fukuyama updated his blog to include some pictures of his upcoming album Romantic World 31.

Among the pictures, it's possible to see a new illustration drawn by CLAMP:

Here is the calendar for both the limited and regular editions:

DVD 1: January 29, 2010.
DVD 2: February 26, 2010.
DVD 3: March 26, 2010.

Also thanks to AmiAmi it's possible to check a few more cast members from the anime:

Ginsei: Daisuke Namikawa
Genko: Rikiya Koyama
Zuishou: Hiroyuki Yoshino
Shuuichirou Kudou: Ken Narita

Daisuke Namikawa as Ginsei... of coooourse, how come I didn't think of that? xD I don't know the seiyuus for Genko or Zuishou, but judging by their faces I would say they fit ^^ And Shuuichirou's seiyuu was Fuuma in X the movie. I think it fits xD

Amazon.co.jp has the front and back cover of the ALL ABOUT CLAMP book:


This is the book version of the CLAMP Newtype [PLATINUM] and [PASTEL] special magazines originally published in 2006, it carries information about all CLAMP works and also X 18.5.

This will be released on October 26.

What a disappointment. Not only the illustrations aren't new, but the typography is also hideous xD

Changing to Kobato. now, NHK has a video from the Kobato. TV Anime press conference that was held earlier this month. Check it out here.

Kana Hanazawa is so adorable it hurts!
